Re: Fwd: [PATCH] git-svn: added an --include-path flag

Hi,
Please forgive the direct approach, but I submitted a git-svn patch to the
git list which sank without any comment. As major contributors to git-svn I
would like to solicit your feedback on it. The patch is so that git svn
clone supports '--include-path' as a complement to '--ignore-path'.  I had
a need for this as our SVN repository has many top level folders of which
only a few may be needed for any project.  I wanted to contribute the patch
back as I think it may be useful to others. I've included unit tests too.

No forgivness necessary, it's standard practice to Cc maintainers in git
(and Linux kernel) patch submissions :)

(Re-adding git ML-as Cc)

Use your name (and current year) in copyright headers for your
submissions.


I'll take a closer look at the rest of the patch later, but your patch
below appears line-wrapped and mangled (see
Documentation/SubmittingPatches).

Also, we'd greatly appreciate you omit HTML from emails in the future.

Thanks.
